Though what you say makes sense, the confusion arises from existingcgroup<->scheduler interface, which can end up showing the abovesingle-set of RT-tasks to be split into multiple sets.

RT Tasks -> {RT0, RT1}

can be shown as:

/a/tasks {RT0, ...} /b/tasks {RT1, ...}

Does this cause any problems? Perhaps no, just seems odd ..

Fixing this oddity of representing single RT-tasks set as multiple is not a cgroup issue IMHO.

P.S :- If eventually RT_GROUP_SCHED will be merged with FAIR_GROUP_SCHED, then it may make sense for us to just ignore this oddity for timebeing and look forward to the options being merged.
